Perhaps it is time listen to those "twenty-three thousandth thread on
the fiftieth different mailing list". People whine for a reason, not
just for the fun of it.

Speaking for myself, this keystroke is one of the things in the Linux
world I really like. A very easy way to fix a problem that sadly still
happens way to often, a stuck X-session. Simple and elegant. So for *me*
it matters, and apparently so also for a bunch of others.
Proportions? Well, look at all those threads you mentioned, and you see
the proportions...
